Recipes: End-Of-Summer Dinner

Page 1: Strawberry Salsa With Cinnamon Tortilla Chips Recipe

Summer is quickly drawing to a close, but you can still enjoy one last hurrah before fall arrives. The recipes in this seven-course dinner, developed by spice leader McCormick, take advantage of seasonal ingredients and lend themselves well to outdoor cooking and eating (and indoor dining, of course). In addition, they utilize ample amounts of the Seven Super Spices, which provide you with loads of antioxidants.

This is a hearty feast. There are two main dishes. If you’re having a large crowd, you can make both. The pasta salad can be a main dish for vegetarians and vegans, or a third side. The squash, green beans and potato salad are also vegan, made with olive oil instead of butter.
